Mealtime Makeover: Peanut Butter & Jelly

Whole-wheat bread and 100% fruit spread pack more fiber into this sandwich. Use fortified bread for added calcium. Serve with a glass of skim milk, a side of apple slices, grapes, or carrot sticks, and you have a healthy meal.

Variations and suggestions:
Try natural peanut butter (no sugar added) instead of soy nut butter. Substitute honey for the fruit spread and top with sliced bananas. You can decrease calories and sugar by 30 calories and 8 grams, respectively, by using a sugar-free jelly.
